How long does it take to get the results of a prenatal blood test?

Patient's question:

Just got married to my husband and am preparing for pregnancy, so I went for a prenatal test yesterday. How long does it usually take to get the results of a blood test for prenatal care?

Doctor's answer:

Pre-pregnancy check-ups vary in the time it takes to get results because the tests differ. Routine blood tests, urine tests, blood type, four infectious disease tests, liver function tests, and kidney function tests can usually provide results on the same day. Other tests, such as thyroid function tests, folic acid utilization gene monitoring, cervical TCT tests, and HPV tests, may take 3 days or even longer. The specific time frame depends on the local hospital's procedures.
